It was very rewarding to see our project reach the top 10 from the >1000 entries to the Hackaday prize :-)

Technology needs to be free for all, and this is only possible with a well motivated and supported community of makers. We are very grateful to Hackaday for organizing such a big contest to promote open projects. We are also thankful to the Open Source Hardware and Software Demonstration (OSHWDem) that took place La Coruña (Spain) this weekend, it also contributed to a great diffusion of the Open Radiation Detector and many other projects.

Thank you!
